I had a very complicated case. Michael Day was thorough and exact. He was forthcoming with information and advised us correctly. WE were very pleased that he was able to help us. He resolved our problem and helped us get Medicaid for our father. His work is high quality, and we would use him again for any services he provides.

The staff at the office of Michael Day is quick and efficient to respond to inquiries directed to my client/attorney relationship. Not only are they efficient but they have a good sense of humor and a pleasure to deal with.

The office staff are not only extremely personable, but they are at the top of their game and their courtesy is overwhelming. Michael Day is very knowledgeable and far exceeds any lawyer that I have ever been too. He anticipated my requests before I even had to ask. In my opinion, a five-star rating is not sufficient.


L.H.

I have enjoyed working with Michael Day and his associates. I was very nervous when I had my first appointment but that did not last long. Everyone was so nice, kind, friendly and helpful. I know that there is supposedly no such thing as a stupid question, but I am sure I asked some! However, I would not have known it. Everyone in the office was more than willing to help. It was a pleasure to deal with the personnel in this office.
